We are going at and beyond the speed of light relative to some distant parts of the universe. So it's the acceleration up to those speeds that humans cannot handle. 100 Gs is considered lethal to humans. In the vicinity of a black hole there are tidal forces that produce accelerations well in excess of 100 Gs.
